Learner Reviews & Feedback for Property and Liability: An Introduction to Law and Economics by Wesleyan University

It is a actually a very good introduction to Law and Economics.

Very interesting topic about Law and an economic aspect of Law and its application

Thanks

Very informative and thumbs up for the teaching faculty.

The professor is very intelligent on the subject. He's well-spoken and easy to understand. I learned a lot about plea bargaining which I wasn't even aware of before. The course was very interesting. My only critique would be the long multi-answer quiz questions. I would try those questions multiple times and never get them 100% right (always felt like I was just 1 or 2 off).

Multiple-choices questions are so complex to me. It would be better, if itincludes any explanations after failing.

Good

Just Fantastic!!!

The instruction was nicely done. The quizzes were a little much. Designed by GTAs, maybe.

enjoyed the instructor's lectures

Very good and informative lectures, but the quizzes were not well designed.

Learned a lot about something i knew nothing about

The course was very interesting, our prof was inspiring. The tests were confusing though, the questions were in a fuzzy order and it was difficult for me to understand their line of thought.

Nice, but the speed the pro talks could be a little bit faster...

Good course for beginners who wants to learn property and liability. I wish there could be more exercise between the videos to help us review what we've learned so we can understand better.There could be also a discussion section-like a forum-where people can discuss their misunderstanding. Otherwise this course is great,I learned a lot!

This course has many useful insights for anyone who is inclined to learn and appreciate the link between the law and economics. The lectures are long (often 30min) in duration consisting of mostly audio and mostly text displayed on screen. The screenspace could be better utilized by animations and slides. There is also a lot of material that goes on in the lectures which could have been better incorporated as a mandatory reading (Coase theorem, Supreme Court judgments etc.) followed up by discussion and quizzes.

The class, is very insightful. Thus far, it's full of deeper insight, than I'd experienced, from my other colleges.

Great course, great content. Thank you very much.

This is a great course to get introduced to thinking about legal problems using economic priniciples. The contents match the course description exactly. The suggested readings are articles written by legal scholars, so they may seem a bit intimidating, but the videos explain the concepts in a lucid manner. My biggest takeaway from this course is a different way of thinking about property. Ask yourself this question: Is a movie ticket your property or the movie theatre owner's? As you will learn, it belongs to both of you at the same time. Enjoy this course.

This is an excellent course however I wish the answer sheets of the quiz be shared once the deadline has passed.

It was a good course - my only issue is that the quiz material is out of order.

The Course is well planned and intended to give clarity with regard to the basics of interplay between law and economics. The best part is that anyone taking the course wouldn't feel like taking classes but, listening to a interesting story, in the process we learn key concepts. Prof Richard Adelstein has a delivery style which is simple that it seems like he is making a 8 year old understand it. So any one above eight years can take the class. The class lays down the foundation to our understanding of law and economics.

Great course, just the quality of the sound was not very good.
